There are certain things that make shows such as The Wire, TWD, SoA & The shield thats great. They have a good story, great dialogue, a decent sense of cohesion among the cast, a great flow/direction and a little bit of depth and realism. In the case of the Night Agent, it lacked every component you can think of. Starting with the actors, Im not going to say acting is a easy job but nothing felt raw or organic. The actors executed every scene with the same amount of intensity. Every scene felt the same. Its all felt as if the actors where just going with the flow. There was little to no depth. Next there was no real connection with the actors. The lines were basic and lacked at lot of depth. Nothing at all was quotable. The one good actor I could think of that felt natural was the male hitman. The actors just were natural enough. The story and plot was horrible. I mean there had to be a million plot twist. Everyone five seconds someone new is betraying the main character or we see a new flash back which really makes no sense. Nothing is exposed about what is truly going on. There was no flow or set direction of this shot. It started slow, stayed slow and then rushed everything in the last minute. Then nothing was realistic. I understand its a thriller type show but come on. Too many shows try to be way to unrealistic and this one nailed it. In what world do we see twi people with little to none training take down CEO level politicians. This is definitely one of those too bad to not watch shows which get ridiculous with every passing moment. This show is definitely no Wire or Game of thrones but this show doesn’t even touch the heels of shows like Burn Notice or CSI Miami.

Was a simple cash grab. I feel like the writers knew this movie would sell regardless because this is a movie that fans wanted. Continuing the entire film was rushed, there were some good scenes but it doesn’t take away from the fact that so much was crammed into 1 hour and 40 something minutes. I am a big fan of MK, so Im going to be critical. This film would have been better off at being 3 hours imo. The characters where just thrown into our faces w/ little to none backstory. It was hard to tell the direction of the film. Couldn’t really connect the story at all.. Its just like being thrown into a story midway w/out no knowledge of anything.It just jumped from one coordinate to another. It really didn’t come off as a smooth film that gives you a slow build up and a story as you watch.. Its not one character that I can say I connected w/. Its like nothing was explained in the movie or expanded upon... It was just “This is happening because the writers said so” “take it or leave”. I really question what efforts where put into this script. The fight scenes weren’t too good either. I was expecting 15 / 20 minutes fight scenes but nearly every first scene felt like 5 or 7 minutes, so again that was disappointing. All in all Ill give it 1.5 out of 5... Also the character Cole was complete BS, you have many characters who haven’t been touched in ages that could have been used instead of some new person. Main point is I think it was rushed and not much thought was put into which is disappointing considering how the game story tends to be. I would definitely watch a sequel but said sequel would have to be at least two and a half hours and there would have to be more story included.
